    Default Another old Kukri!

    I got my hands on a couple of Kukris recently. One of them is quite old, almost certainly from the first 1/2 of the 19th Century, made in Nepal. Lovely old thing, which is not going to be used on anything! But it is really interesting to see, and learn from, a different approach to knife making. It came without a sheath, and I intend to make one for it.

    A few pictures.








    Enjoy the pictures...
